Highs and Lows

Here we are—highs and lows! And I have to say, I’m very excited.

My high this week is that Washington, D.C. is finally taking the deficit seriously. I’ve been here for seven years shouting from the rooftops, and time and again, we’ve said we’re going to do something—only to do nothing. But I truly believe that, at last, we’re going to have a budget I can actually vote for. We’re finally getting the deficit under control, and that’s a big deal.
